Last week on Freeform Portland Radio, I had the decadent pleasure of interviewing one of my favorite human mammals, Ms. Mary Edwards, about her newest piece, "Everywhere We Are is the Farthest Place." The soundscape composition features field recordings of glaciers and oceanographic data taken above the 78th parallel in Svalbard. We also played sounds by some of her biggest muses including Susumo Yokota, Tim Hecker, Biosphere, Cortex, and more.
